One person is reported dead with many others injured after river Todze in the Agortime-Ziope District capital overflowed its banks in the Volta region on Thursday.<\/p>\n
A heavy downpour which started around 7 pm lasted for about seven hours and is believed to have caused the river to push through its banks and destroyed property after entering the town.<\/p>\n
